Abstract

According to the embodiments described herein, a method for characterizing in vivo operation of a dental prosthetic can include providing subject position data and prosthetic position data. The method may further include transforming the subject position data into a reference three-dimensional coordinate system. The reference three-dimensional coordinate system can be ordered according to a coordinate index. The coordinate index can be based at least in part upon a subject position index of the subject position data. The method may further include comparing, automatically with one or more processors, the prosthetic position data and the reference three-dimensional coordinate system according to a comparison order to characterize the dental prosthetic. The comparison order can be based at least in part upon a prosthetic position index of the prosthetic position data and the coordinate index.
